Do people roleplay nazi situations? No. And why? Because it’s a great disservice to the people who have experienced or been affectef by it.

October 9 was Hangul Day, a day celebrating the invention of the Korean alphabet. All writing systems are cool, but the Korean alphabet is a special favourite of linguists because the symbols are designed based on the phonetic features of their sounds. For example, from Wikipedia:

ㄱ g [k], ㅋ k [kʰ] Basic shape: ㄱ is a side view of the back of the tongue raised toward the velum (soft palate). (For illustration, access the external link below.) ㅋ is derived from ㄱ with a stroke for the burst of aspiration. ㄴ n [n], ㄷ d [t], ㅌ t [tʰ], ㄹ r [ɾ, l] Basic shape: ㄴ is a side view of the tip of the tongue raised toward the alveolar ridge (gum ridge). The letters derived from ㄴ are pronounced with the same basic articulation. The line topping ㄷ represents firm contact with the roof of the mouth. The middle stroke of ㅌ represents the burst of aspiration. The top of ㄹ represents a flap of the tongue.

As this video from the late linguist Jim McCawley points out, this means that King Sejong and his scholars had a very modern understanding of articulatory phonetics and the phonology of Korean way back in the 1400s, and a sense of how important it was to design a system that was easy to learn so that everyone could be literate.

The individual sounds are then combined into syllable blocks. For example, here’s the word “hangul” itself:

For more information, Wikipedia is a good place to start, and there’s also a video series about learning Hangul.

Why is it called the “Auction House” when there is no bidding system? Shouldn’t it just be called “Trades” or “Player Sales” or something?

I’m pretty sure Coatls are named after Quetzalcoatl. So the prounuciation of Coatl.. well, the English pronunciation of the word is something like Koh-ah-tull…

helledragon-blog

I always pronounce it as "Co-at-ull".
